Does my house need rewiring?
This is a question we are often asked over the phone. In some cases we may suggest that it is very likely that it will need rewiring or it would be a good idea. But the ideal situation is for us to come out and see. The cost of rewiring a house can vary greatly and it may be that you just need a repair of partial rewiring.

Safety
If you don’t have enough electrical outlets around your home, it becomes a problem in more ways than one. Extension cords can be dangerous and unsafe if they are not used correctly. Also broken switches, outlets, wiring and receptacles can be very dangerous and may be a fire hazard. If you need more outlets call us today and we can install anything you need.
Cost to Rewire a House
Many people ask “How much does it cost to rewire a house” or the cost of rewiring an old house. We wish there was a simple answer and there would be if every house was exactly the same size and didn’t need a new switchboard.
However, there are as many different sizes, shapes, configurations of houses and switchboards as there are houses. So the only way to give you an accurate estimate for your specific home is for us to come and give you a quote. You may be surprised and find that we can do some repairs instead of rewiring.

How can I tell if my house needs rewiring?
If you notice frequent electrical issues, outdated wiring, or dimming lights, it might indicate a need for rewiring. It’s best to consult a professional for an accurate assessment and safety.

What's the difference between wiring and rewiring?
Wiring typically refers to the initial installation of electrical wires in a new building while rewiring involves replacing or updating existing electrical systems.
Is my old wiring a fire hazard?
Outdated or damaged wiring can be a potential fire hazard. It’s essential to have it inspected and replaced if necessary.
How do I know if my electrical outlets are safe?
If outlets are broken, produce sparks, or have loose-fitting plugs, they might be unsafe. Regular inspections can help identify potential issues.
Can I add more rooms to my house without rewiring?
Adding rooms might require additional wiring to accommodate new electrical needs. Consult with an electrician before proceeding.
How long will it take for my house to be rewired?
The duration depends on the house’s size and the complexity of the wiring. An electrician can provide a more accurate time frame after an assessment.
